Justin wasn't shopping for one. But, while on vacation on the east coast, he purchased a cathedral style radio from an antique store. When he got it back to the hotel and turned it on, he was surprised at what he heard. Terrified voices from three centuries ago spilled into his hotel room as he listened to a terrible storm battering a passenger ship at sea. Then, in the midst of the fearful cries and shouts for mercy from passengers on the ship, in the distance, a man heard some people singing a hymn. How could they be so calm at a time like this?How can we Christians be so calm at a time like this? How can we reach the throne of God and be blessed with permanent peace and saved from the storm of this modern culture battering our hearts and minds today?In the recent past many Christians obtained what has come to be called, a "second blessing" from God in which their hearts, souls and minds were filled with pentecostal power. Justin and his new found friends listened intently as his supernatural radio scanned the past, finding these long forgotten saints whose wisdom and experience seem no longer relevant today. But is that true?John Wesley, a co-founder of the Methodist church, said, "Light yourself on fire with passion and people will come from miles around to watch you burn." Did the Christian church miss a chance to catch the world on fire with the Gospel? Will that old radio reveal a secret that could set a holy fire ablaze within each of us?Stay tuned.
